Then why not write a blog post and explain these updates and submit it to HN normally, rather than through "Show HN"? I didn't realise Show HN was used for this sort of thing.

(edit) From the guidelines:

> New features and upgrades ("Foo 1.3.1 is out") generally don't make good Show HNs. If you've had a breakthrough, a new Show HN might be ok—just don't do it routinely.

There are a ridiculous number of new things - including the entire design itself that I believe it deserves more than a Foo 1.3.1 update. Appreciate your comment.

But we don't know that. It could be exactly the same. That's why I suggested you link to an article about all the new updates and your vision next. That's what everyone usually does and it gets a better reception over on HN.

"Show HN" is really not for this sort of thing.

I have never seen this before btw, I really love it. Planning on using it :-)

Where did you see this? I couldn't find anything about Show HN in the Guidelines or FAQ.

Click "Show HN" and read the first line under the orange bar. ;)
